Reviews

This book provides insightful discussion of case studies in various urban spaces that spotlight the evolutionary space formation among Asian cities during the process of industrial and cultural transformation. This volume also opens a door for scholars to further investigate how these major Asian cities can continue to benefit from cultural spaces during this transition period. - Jaewon Lim, Journal of Regional Science, May 2013
